August 11th
After yesterday's gales today dawned bright and breezy as we walked from Reculver to Coldharbour. There were quite a few terns moving back E out of the Swale or roosting on the beach and  we counted 147 Sandwich Terns and 155 Common Terns. Other birds we saw included 4 Goldfinches, 33 Sand Martins, 43 Linnets, 2 Mediterranean Gulls, 2 Pied Wagtails, 3 Common Sandpipers, 6 Turnstone, 5 Redshank, 9 Ringed Plovers, 4 Yellow Wagtails, 12 Little Egrets, 2 Grey Herons, 1 Shelduck, 8 Cormorants, 5 Swifts W, 1 Fulmar W, 1 Common Gull and 1 Kestrel.
